John 11:35 (NKJV) 35 Jesus wept.

Why would Jesus weep?

Because He truly cares for you and I. His love and compassion are so deep for each one of us personally, He showed such love by serving.

How did He serve? He healed and delivered people constantly while He was here. He showed God’s compassion and mercy by forgiving people for their sins. And He ultimately gave His life for us all. He had a loving, caring servant’s heart.

Do we know anyone else who would go the distance that He went for us? Do we know any person that cared so much for our destiny that they made provision through the giving of their own life?

He doesn’t talk about us or look down at us because of our errors. But, instead, He wants to encourage us to keep trying, again and again. He will stand with us and help us through our weak moments. He is a true friend.

John 15:15 (NKJV) 15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

What a wonderful friend we have in Jesus. He will stick with us through it all. Amen.

Obeying God

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Even in the midst of persecution, trials and tribulations there is peace if we know Jesus.

Many people go through life without knowing Him. They may have heard about Him, or read about Him. They may have even believed in Him. But it does no good to anyone unless we personally KNOW Him.

That’s right, a friend of Jesus Christ; our Savior and the Messiah of this world. The Son of the Almighty God.

Jesus came to show us all who He is, that we may love, honor and obey Him.

Loving Him will cause us to honor Him. Honoring Him will cause us to obey Him. When we love, honor and follow His commands, He looks at us as His friend.

John 15:14 (NKJV) 14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.

What a wonderful Friend to have by our side! Someone who will love us and hold us close. Someone who sticks close by and helps us through everything we go through in this life.

Do we know Him personally today? Has He walked us through some moments in life that only we can testify to? Have we seen His face shine down in the storm, His peace surround us when we didn’t know what way to turn?

Shout it from the rooftop, what our Jesus has done for us. Let those moments stay alive and breathe life into others as we share the goodness of our Lord and Savior, our friend for life!
